Hi Pete, you are sure the greatest support of the sim community. I already bought the registered version and everything is working fine. I was going to buy it anyway. FSUIPC and WideFS are great software!!!! Keep the good work and thanks for the mail. See you in the virtual skies. :lol:

Thank you for your prompt response Pete. What is happening is that I have input for the controls at the PFC module. The sliders from the yoke, rudder pedals and throttle quadrants move, but after I close the PFC module, the controls are dead for the sim. The only thing that works are the buttons for the views. I have no rudder nor elevator, flaps, engine thrust levers feedback. The test for the PFC that starts checking the com port, and the flight controls are all green. Do you know what can be wrong?

Hi Pete, I am already a registered FSUIPC user and bought my registration with sim market. I tried to register the 4.02 version I just downloaded from Schiratti and after inputing my name, e mail and 12 key, it says that is not a valid number. Do I need to buy the new version? I get input if I use the PFC module but I have no control of anything in FSX. Greetings. CPA. Emilio Hernández

Ok, Pete. Finally I could find an offset value for the MD panel and already programmed it in FSUIPC and it works with my GFMCP. You surely are the best in support. Nobody answer me as fast as you ever. Thank you very much for taking time to answer me all of my questions and get me out of the nebula of offsets, asignments, mouse clicks, claks and cluks. Hope this Padwan will become in time a Jedi. It is time for me to go and learn and practice. Hope to came back to you in a time where we can discuss more than elemental and get into deep. Thank you very much for your time and explanations. If I find something in the matrix I will be pleased to tell you. Emilio Hernandez

Thanks Pete. One probably last silly question. How do I know if it uses FSUIPC offsets? Thanks again Emilio Hernandez PD I already downloaded the key2mouse. Seems I will be registering it tomorrow. Thanks again. Twice :wink:

Ok. Pete I understand. My intention never is to hack developers that provide us with good software such as PMDG and to give away their secrets. I just thought that getting to work my hardware with my license software wasn't hacking. But if this is hacking I will nor longer insist. I will stick to what it is published by the authors. But talking about other panels that are freeware. I have the Paul Golding's MD panel who was written originally for FS2002 I downloaded freeware from Flightsim. There is an upgrade in flightsim for making it work for FS9. It has an APU switch. How can I program a GFtoggle switch in order to activate the APU? Thanks again for your prompt response.

Hi Pete, thanks for your prompt response. After doing some trial and error. FSinterrogate came with the 3scan option with this offset: 622B In your original file I substitute your Condition 7 for this one: 7=X622B U16*360/65536 ;FS's HDG nonzero? and in the MCP section this one: D1.1=!C0 C7 X622B U16*360/65536 D30 D1.2=!C0 !C7 "360" With this, now when I turn the knob for the Heading in PMDG 737 there is a readout in the goflight MCP, and it changes as I turn the knob The strange thing is that: First the heading of the FS does not comply with the heading in the GFMCP. The numbers are different but it changes as I turn the knob in both the GFMCP and in the PMDG HDG knob. For example: If I have 52 in the heading in the panel the readout of the GFMCP is about 280. Second. If I change one degree in the PMDG panel, it will change one degree in the same direction in the GFMCP and viceversa. But If change 10 degrees in the PMDG panel, it will change more than 10 units in the GFMCP. I know you told me PMDG don't want to give their offset setting to control the airplane with hardware at least not all of them. But I am as stuborn as a mule. If I can get this working now there is only three more displays to go I will apply the same dose. Any ideas? If I can get to work the GFMCP with the PMDG 737 I am sure I will give something back to the sim community. :) And by the way, how can I program a switch with the offsets I am getting in the FSinterrogate in your FSUIPC in order to lets say start APU? Thanks again Emilio Hernández

Hello Pete, although I am an avid user of FSUIPC (of course registered one), this is the first time I need to address to you with a specific matter. First, congratulations on all the things you have done for the FS and thank you. Ok. let´s get down to business. I have the Goflight MCP and the 737. I am already using the GFDisplay and read through your manual. I can get working the CRS and it matches the display from the panel to the display in the MCP. After playing a while I discovered that the offset value of the CRS works fine with the default inherent to FS. But for the other values PMDG used different settings. I loaded a default FS aircraft and the Goflight MCP works just fine with GFDisplay with the default programming you provided. I downloaded the FSinterrogate to look for the offset value that PMDG used to display the HDG IAS/MACH VS and ALT. But the only offsets I found are those of the default FS. Such as 07CC for the HDG. Is there a way to find to correct PMDG offset values using FSinterrogate in order to substitute the default offset values for the ones that PMDG is using to get the correct readout in the goflight MCP? And another question: Is there a way to use FSinterrogate to get the value for example for the APU starting switch and get it programmed in FSUIPC? Thank you Pete for your great job and dedication.
